i have a 96 seadoo xp when i hook up the lanyard it does the regular double beep then three longer beeps and the temp light flashes with the beep then goes off . and it will not start

3 beeps in the advanced diagnostics is a ground on the lanyard post.

Just for giggles.... disconnect your battery for a few minutes, and see if the code goes away.

i unhooked the battery and it started several times but it doesnt help now .if that doesnt work could it be a bad temp sending unit

Two beeps mean mpem confirms the key is correct and ignition is on, ready to start. A long beep means a wire conduction loss.
Press the start button five times to bring the diagnostic beep code and read the manual. Read Recent posts on the subject, below.

I had this same problem. It was the 5 amp fuse in the relay.
